Dang, yeah I know that game! Hope the next few days go easy on you. Nothing like trying to draw while a jackhammer is trying to escape your tooth π

Damn, commiseration dude! Iβve got one on Monday as wellβ¦ did your dentist give you a prescription for antibiotics (amoxicillin)? I had a minor abscess and was in pure misery all week, but that knocked the pain all the way out overnight.
Coming this Friday, 1/16 at 1pm ET- new @jamesstokoe.bsky.social original art from TWILIGHT ZONE #3!
Interior pages and this stunning cover will drop over at the Zarcokoe.com web store. Don't miss it!
Today will be a double-dose of @jamesstokoe.bsky.social original art as ORPHAN : BATH OF BLOOD #4 joins the drop!
This is the big finale of the second arc that you definitely don't want to miss it. Available Friday, 1/16 at 1pm ET at Zarcokoe.com!
Long prophesized, finally delivered, I have not one but *two* books about dumb people hitting each other with sticks out today. TWILIGHT ZONE #3 and the final issue of this leg of ORPHAN AND THE FIVE BEASTS: BATH OF BLOOD #4
I haven't had the chance to watch a ton lately, but Tubi just put up the Chinese Ghost Story movies recently, so I'll be watching those again soon

Yeah, that's what I'm hearing! Thinking that's the way to go.

Thanks, Farel! (did I ever send you the Orphan pdfs? I think I might have an old email for you?)
Unearthed hidden treasure from the closet. I love these editions so much, but Iβm debating whether it would be better to eBay the rest, or just get the new reprints
Thank you bb! Excited about your new book w/ Leslie!!!
New cover for an upcoming re-issue of Wonton Soup
Joking aside, this is good advice I've taken to heart lately, not even just from a time-saving standpoint. Sometimes the panel will thank you for looking better.
Killed it as always, Artyom! If OS ever comes back, I've gotta get you to do something for it β€οΈ
Thank you! Not a ton of second guessing these days (can't really afford to with comics), but I'm happy the hit to miss ratio is more in my favour lately
Thanks, Paul! It's actually the first part of a connecting cover, so it's definitely a layout I don't think I would have gone with otherwise, but I'm glad it works!
No, I don't want to!!
if you're one person making a comic by yourself, don't treat yourself like you should function on the same level as comics that have multiple people working on them. your backgrounds can be squiggles and colors.
allow yourself room to be abstract with details and give yourself some grace
And here's the previous one I did back in '22 - I love drawing One-Eye and Bowie SO damn much:
Yooooooooooooooooo!

I don't think a week has gone by since I read it where I didn't daydream about how to do a comic book adaption
